I read the news today, OH BOY: Zimmerman's legal team & potential jurors' "favorite Fox News shows"

[Amerigo Vespucci]

The lawyers in George Zimmerman's murder trial are very interested in its potential jurors — their daily reading habits, their favorite Fox News shows, the newspapers they throw out. After all, these are the people who are going to decide whether or not Zimmerman murdered Trayvon Martin. Of particular interest to attorneys on both sides, however, is how much these 10 already over-scrutinized men and women mopped up from the ink spilled in the nearly 16 months since the shooting — and, of increasing importance, how many of the stories leaked in the last few weeks they've vacuumed into their objective consciousness.

1. There ain't nothing better than a dumb jury

Just ask OJ and Casey Anthony. The dumber the better for the defense.

2. A jury of gun lovers and bigots (typical Fox viewers) are Zimmerman's best hope.

3. It's Florida. Zimmerman is likely going to get off. nt

4. Don't Underestimate Jurors

I've sat on two trials in my lifetime and both times found my fellow jurors to be thoughtful, mindful of the evidence, and skeptical of both the prosecution and the defense. Both times, during deliberation, the evidence and testimony were carefully weighed by all and no conclusions were jumped to.

In the most recent trial, most of us felt that the man accused was likely guilty of the crime, but the prosecution had not proven its case beyond a reasonable doubt. But we weren't about to convict a man simply because we "felt" he was guilty.

This is the way our system is supposed to work. And if the prosecutors don't present enough evidence to convict Zimmerman, then he should be let free.

I, personally, feel he's guilty of stalking and killing a man, but that's only my uninformed and emotional opinion based on the few facts we've gotten in the media. So don't assume that if the jury acquits it's because they're stupid or biased. Assume they acquitted because the evidence didn't rise above the standard of reasonable doubt.

5. Having a "favorite Fox News show" should disqualify you from any jury.

That's prima facie evidence you're an idiot.
